My name is Amy, and I’m the girliest geek you’ll ever meet. I love gaming, Steampunk and Goth style, getting dolled up, scifi/fantasy, and singing like a mermaid. I was officially diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome at age 19, but I suspect I’ve had it since I was in my early teens. I launched my first business, LuvCherie Jewelry, in January 2010. Since then my greatest challenge has been figuring out how to manage both my business and my health.

Fibropreneur.com is an idea that has been bouncing around in my head in one form or another since mid-2013, but it wasn’t until January 2014 that it finally solidified into what you see here. Fibropreneur.com is my sometimes too honest account of what it’s like to try and run your own business while dealing with a variety of chronic health challenges. My goal is for Fibropreneur.com to grow from a blog of one into a community of entrepreneurs who support each other and help each other overcome the unique challenges chronic illness brings to running a business. Together we can succeed!
